<p>Hello. I have been searching for easy ways to start contributing to the compiler, and saw the suggestion by <span class="user-mention" data-user-id="281757">@Jubilee</span> to search issues with <code>E-needs-test</code> label (<a href="#narrow/stream/182449-t-compiler.2Fhelp/topic/Finding.20tasks.20I.20can.20help.20with/near/242350862">https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/182449-t-compiler.2Fhelp/topic/Finding.20tasks.20I.20can.20help.20with/near/242350862</a>). I found issue <a href="https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/78632">#78632</a> that looked approachable, but looking closer I am fairly certain that it's just mislabeled. As far as I can tell, <span class="user-mention" data-user-id="307537">@Noah Lev</span> added a test to Glacier.<br>
Can someone please confirm that I understand the situation correctly? cc <span class="user-mention" data-user-id="239861">@Alex Macleod</span> who added that label. Thanks.</p>

<p>Glacier only tests if an ICE still exists. Once it doesn't anymore, it becomes marked as fixed in glacier, but still needs a test in rust-lang/rust to prevent regressing it in the future. Glacier runs every day, the rust test suite runs before every merge.</p>

<p>Thank you for explaining. Can you tell me what would be a good place for such a test? I didn’t see any ‘ice’ directories in ui tests dir.</p>

<p>Maybe <code>src/test/ui/issues</code>?</p>

<p>Issues is too big already, it's better to use a more specific directory</p>

<p>There's no place for "all ices" because it would be enormous, it should be based off the content of the program instead</p>
